Evergreen Trees
"We dream of vistas 'mid the crowding snows ,
With Evergreens along the northern line—
The Pines and Cedars when the cold wind blows
Through all their branches with a constant whine."
EVERGREEN trees when received from the Nursery are
balled and burlapped. Our experience proves to us
that Evergreens handled this way (B&B) can be planted
as soon as the frost leaves the ground in Spring, and right
through the Summer and Fall until the ground is frozen
again.
When planting Evergreens, dig the hole eight to ten
inches larger than the ball, and about one inch deeper.
Remove burlap and set tree in the hole. Step back and
see if the plant is straight and placed to the best advantage
in relation to other plants and surroundings. Now fill
the hole almost full of soil, and then fill with water. After
the water has soaked down, fill completely with soil and
tramp it down until it is firm and level.
At all times keep the soil cultivated. In dry weather,
water at intervals of seven to ten days. Water thoroughly
and see that it penetrates well down to the roots. Water¬
ing a little every day does more harm than good. | Ever¬
greens will grow in any good garden soil. Use fertilizer
sparingly.

Dwarf Evergreens for
Foundation Planting
NO planting about the entrance of a home can
compete with one of Evergreens. Shrubbery
is effective and of great beauty during the Spring
and Summer, but with the coming of Fall, the
forlorn appearance of “gone by” comes and stays
for six months.
There are low growing types of Evergreens,
many of which retain their dwarf form for a decade
or longer. They are to be chosen, for a growth
of plant material which barricades the windows,
shutting out air and sunshine, is very undesirable.
Plants should be placed not nearer than two
feet from the wall, and a space of at least three feet apart, for a crowded plant turns brown. The
taller plants are more effective in the background, with the low bushy ones in front. The taller
growing ones may be used to advantage, too, as accent points.
Even dwarf varieties need pruning in June of every year. That month is the best, for the new
growth has been made, and enough growth will take place after the pruning to obviate the
unnatural sheared appearance.
Ordinarily, Evergreens need no watering after they are well established. If a continued
drought should occur, a thorough soaking once in seven to ten days is necessary.
The following Evergreens are suggested as suitable for use in Foundation Plantings:
Chamaecyparis obtusa gracilis
Chamaecyparis obtusa nana

Rhododendrons
The climax in beauty and sheer loveli¬
ness is reached in this family. These broad¬
leaved evergreens have glossy, long, taper¬
ing and richly green leaves. Their blos¬
soms are luxuriantly massed in clusters of
fresh, delightful colors. Along paths or
drives, or as informal plantings for garden
or lawn, they give the utmost pleasure.
They ask one thing in return, that they
be planted in a decidedly acid soil. We can
help you make sure of this.
Hybrid Rhododendrons. Named colors.
3-8 ft. These plants are grown from
seeds of Hybrid Rhododendrons. They
grow much stronger and bushier than

Deciduous Trees
DECIDUOUS TREES can be planted as soon as the frost is out of the ground, and continued
until late May, or in the Fall after two or three frosts, until the ground has frozen. In planting
Deciduous Trees, dig the hole large enough so that the roots may be laid out straight, and deep
enough so the tree will be about 1 inch deeper than it was planted in the nursery, which is shown
by the collar on the trunk. While filling in the soil, shake the tree gently up and down and then
tramp the earth in firmly. Soak thoroughly. It is advisable to have guy wires on the tree for the
first year until the roots become firmly established, as the swaying of the tree may disturb them.

Flowering Shrubs
[17]
Flowering Shrubs
THERE is nothing which gives greater return for money expended than this group. Most shrubs
are showered with color— the golden yellow of the Forsythias, purest white of the Spirea —
the blue of the Syringa — deep red of the Weigelas — or mass of brilliant blooms of the Azaleas.
They are invaluable as screens, boundaries, or in foundation plantings, either used alone or
with Evergreens.
Shrubs, like deciduous trees, may be planted as soon as the frost is out of the ground until
late May, and again in che Fall after two or three frosts, until the ground is frozen.
When Shrubs are received from the nursery they are in a dormant condition. The plant should
be placed in the ground immediately, for if the roots dry out it will die.
The hole into which the plant is placed should be wide enough so that the roots lie flat. Fill
in the soil, shaking the plant gently up and down to sift the soil around the roots, and firm it
thoroughly. After a thorough soaking with water, the Shrub needs no further attention except
the general care of fertilizing and pruning each year.
May we give a word of caution about pruning? The best time to prune Shrubs is right after
the blooming season. Cut out all dead and old wood. Most shrubs flower on the new growth so
this should not be removed.
Lilacs should be pruned only once every six or seven years, and then cut back hard.
Nothing benefits a Shrub more than proper pruning. When done correctly, you will be rewarded
with a wealth of blooms.

Hints for Successful Culture
USUALLY the best effects are obtained by planting Perennials in groups of not less than three.
A few of the more robust Perennials, such as the Peony or Dicentra spectabilis are effective
as individual specimens. The area being planted will determine the size of the groupings.
Most Perennials may be planted in early Spring, from the time the frost is out of the ground
until late June, or from the middle of September to the first of November.
For the new bed, spade to a depth of feet, and incorporate a generous supply of well decayed
manure with an application of bonemeal.
Old beds should be renewed every three years. Plants should be taken out of the ground and
divided. The bed should be spaded up, fertilized, and the plants returned.
While Perennials grow in poor soil, yearly fertilizing will insure fine, sturdy plants, and con¬
stant cutting of the flowers, continuous bloom. A careful selection of an assortment of varieties,
and a little attention will reward you with bloom from early Spring until very late Fall.

Of upward reaching things My soul the sense of wings."

Suggestions for the Culture of Roses
“ A sweeter flower did nature ne'er put forth"
— William Browne
A SUCCESSFUL Rose Garden is the goal of every grower of flowers. They thrive best in a
garden where the morning sun reaches them. Excavate to a depth of 2 feet, place a layer of
cow manure on the bottom and fill with good top soil, building the bed to a height of 4 inches
above the ground level.
Space Hybrid Tea Roses 18 inches, and Hybrid Perpetuals 2 feet apart, thus allowing plenty
of room for the roots to spread out. All Roses should be planted so the place where they are grafted
or budded is 3 inches below the surface. Tramp in firmly and water well. Keep the ground well
mulched. To secure the most perfect blossoms, cut each flower when the bud is opening.
Cut the plants back in the Fall after two o
months. Roses should be uncovered in the early
of manure and cultivation at this time will help
Strong, field grown plants, 2 years old: 75c. each,
5 or more of one kind at 65c. each,
unless otherwise noted
If we are out of the variety ordered, we shall select

N this catalog we would like to emphasize our Green¬

have over 15,000 square feet under glass. Our spe¬
cialty is Carnations. At the present time we have

son Chrysanthemums, Freesias, Stevia, Snapdragon,
the new beautiful Blue Iris, Calla Lilies, Calendulas,
Roses, Calla Lily Begonias, Echeverias, and a gen¬
eral line of Potted Plants.

GAZING GLOBE
Nearly every person can obtain some
wonderful experiences by gazing at a

nating and deep-reaching effect and

adopted an optional partial payment plan. The initial cost of a satisfactory
planting is met in monthly payments, arranged with the customer. If you
wish to adopt this method, write “Club Plan” on the order.
RATES: 1 to 4 plants of one kind and size will be priced at the single rate;
5 to 24’plants of one kind and size will be priced at the ten rate; 25 plants or
more of one kind and size will be priced at the hundred rate.
ADJUSTMENT : Any errors or omissions on our part will be satisfactorily
adjusted if notification is given within five days after receipt of goods.

and healthy at time of shipment or we replace or refund money paid, at
buyer’s option. We shall not be held liable for a sum greater than the original
sale price.
INSPECTION : Our Nurseries are inspected yearly by an authorized State
Inspector, and a copy of our certificate is enclosed with every shipment.
SUBSTITUTION : Occasionally a late order finds our stock depleted of a
certain desired plant. We believe we can best serve you by making a careful
substitution of the nearest match. If you prefer not to have us do this, write
“No Substitution” on your order.

the owner’s risk and expense. Damages in transit should be taken up imme¬
diately with your Express or Freight Agent.
